Detailed explanation-1: -During mitosis, a cell duplicates all of its contents, including its chromosomes, and splits to form two identical daughter cells. Because this process is so critical, the steps of mitosis are carefully controlled by certain genes. When mitosis is not regulated correctly, health problems such as cancer can result.

Detailed explanation-2: -Stages of mitosis: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase. Cytokinesis typically overlaps with anaphase and/or telophase. You can remember the order of the phases with the famous mnemonic: [Please] Pee on the MAT.

Detailed explanation-3: -Chromosomes line up in the centre of the cell attached to the mitotic spindle. The spindle contracts and the sister chromatids are pulled apart to opposite ends of the cell. The cell constricts and divides in two. Two identical diploid daughter cells are produced.

Detailed explanation-4: -These phases are prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. Cytokinesis is the final physical cell division that follows telophase, and is therefore sometimes considered a sixth phase of mitosis.

Detailed explanation-5: -Divide into four phases the reproduction process of chromosomes in plant and animal cells. Mitosis has four stages: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.
